The movie "The Wandering Earth" was recognized by Liu Cixin: "It is first-class in all aspects"

The science fiction film "The Wandering Earth", adapted from Liu Cixin's novel of the same name, was screened today and received strong recognition from many media people and the original author Liu Cixin. Liu said, "It is hard to believe that this is the first attempt at a Chinese science fiction blockbuster. Even by the standards of American science fiction films, it has reached first-class standards in all aspects."

The movie "The Wandering Earth" is adapted from Liu Cixin's novel of the same name. It tells the story of the sun about to be destroyed in the near future, and the solar system is no longer suitable for human survival. Faced with desperation, humans will start the "Wandering Earth" plan to try to escape the solar system with the earth and find a new home for mankind. "The sun is about to be destroyed, and humans have built a huge thruster on the surface of the earth to find a new home. However, the road to the universe is full of dangers. In order to save the earth and for mankind to reach a new home after a long 2,500 years, the young people of the Wandering Earth era stepped forward and started a life-and-death battle against time."

Liu Cixin said on his personal Weibo: "I just watched the movie "The Wandering Earth". It is hard to believe that this is the first attempt of a Chinese science fiction blockbuster. Even by the standards of American science fiction movies, it has reached first-class standards in all aspects. I have always believed that good science fiction is to describe the craziest fantasy as real as news reports. The scenes full of heavy epic texture created by "The Wandering Earth" have achieved this. At the same time, the movie is the first time that the Chinese people's feelings for their homeland and home are shown on a space scale, which is shocking.

The humans in The Wandering Earth set the Earth sailing out of the solar system with extraordinary courage and dedication, and the film's production team also used their passion and admirable efforts to start a magnificent journey for Chinese science fiction films. I would like to express only one hope: if the sun is really going to have a catastrophe, I pray that it happens after the first day of the Chinese New Year, so that the audience will have the opportunity to see this film. "

Weibo blogger "Ji Shisan" (CEO of Guokr.com) said, "After watching it, I felt it exceeded my expectations and was very grand. There were many adaptations, but overall it was reasonable, and there were many Chinese elements but they were not inconsistent. Liu Cixin said after watching it that Chinese science fiction films have truly set sail from today. Dai Jinhua said that the first year of Chinese science fiction has begun from now on."

The Wandering Earth will be released on the first day of the Chinese New Year, directed by Guo Fan and starring Wu Jing, Qu Chuxiao, Li Guangjie, Wu Mengda and others. It is worth mentioning that the film adaptation of Liu Cixin's award-winning work The Three-Body Problem was prepared as early as 2015, but for various reasons, the film seems to have been stopped and is nowhere in sight.
